URGENT : hey guys my ps3 doesnt seem to detect any videos pics or themes from pen drive!!! what is the way to transfer data from pendrive into ps3???

cheers.

 

 

Themes have to be put in the correct THEME folder under a PS3 directory on the root of the Pen drive.

 

Pendriveletter:\PS3\THEME\<your files here>

 

Videos can be done likewise or you could point to the pen drive under videos, hit triangle and display all. It will show the vids. Same way with the pictures use photos section and then triangle..

hey guys i was thinking of connecting ps3 to lcd monitor but i think it needs to be HDCP compatible...now thats means it needs to be a HD monitor so i dont think there is any chance?my monitor is Samsung SyncMaster 2033sw 20".

just get a dvi to hdmi socket or a cable............................... will solve the problem.......... connect the dvi in the LCD and either connect the hdmi cable in ps3 and socket or if find the cable connect the hdmi end in ps3 and other end in LCD

^^ I think it needs just HDCP compatibility. He's not asking about the cable connection side of things.

 

Not necessary that it support full HD. My 19" wide Viewsonic's native res is 1440 x 900 and I can still use the PS3 with it (though I usually use it with my 42inch LCD TV through HDMI) cos its HDCP compatible. Try the monitor with a PC and run some software like Cyberlink BD advisor to see if it shows your monitor as HDCP capable.

Its a digital cable.. even a 50 rupee cable will match quality of a 1k cable, there is no loss in quality like analog cables.

 

Just worry about the build quality.

Get any cables as per your need from Blue Jean Cables, even the cheapest Tartan brand are good, using 2 of them with my PS3 & Xbox 360!!!

 

Blue Jean Cables are good, I got my high end speakers cables shipped to India from them.

^and how to get sound?

cheers.

 

When you do this you'll obviously lose the High-def sound component that goes through your HDMI, you'll just get Video.

 

You can still use optical out to a speaker set. Or have the red and white RCA cables (Composite from the PS3) plugged into a RCA to 3.5mm converter and stick your headphones or speakers into that.

 

This is what I use to output to my speakers. I don't really like my TV's built in speakers.

You're not getting what I'm saying, when you use a HDMI to DVI cable, you WILL NOT BE ABLE TO GET SOUND FROM THE DVI... get it?? Only HDMI to HDMI will preserve the sound...

 

i know that.thats the reason i was asking if bychance there is any way for getting sound using dvi coz me doesnt have hdmi port for the monitor!and vga will degrade quality i guess...anyways i will stick to LED for the ps3!360 is already connected to the monitor.plus i also have too many pc games at hand....thanx though.. :rofl:

 

 

 

cheers.

Nope, no way to get sound via HDMI--->DVI conversion.

 

You're welcome. :ack:

 

 

 

Where do I buy z5500 and what is it retailing for?

 

 

Around 17-18k I think.

URGENT: guys i connected to LIVE yesterday (after a lot of hardwork) but somehow i lost my "last played" game's saves anf gamerscore.i had started gears of war before i connected to LIVE.and once my process was done i lost about 600 GS and now only 30 GS is displayed for my gears of war game.although the achievements that were unlocked are still visible.also my game checkpoints are also lost.how can i recover my GS?

 

Also how can i connect my GFWL account with my LIVE account?i know there is an option for it but the GFWL account needs to have the same email id i guess....my GFWL account is connected to my other yahoo id.plus the region is UK.so will that cause any problem?
